Inside the octagon, the fight started with a flurry of exchanges right from the first moments. Douglas proved more precise and landed the best blows, while Erosa tried to even the score by applying pressure midway through the round, but without success against the Brazilian's immediate response.
The fight was decided in the first round. At a fast pace, Douglas landed a powerful sequence of blows, starting with a clean jab, which opened the way for a series of strikes until the referee stopped the fight, declaring a technical knockout and ending the fight in a dominant fashion.
With the victory, the Brazilian fighter now has 14 wins and five losses in his career, starting his UFC journey on a high note. Erosa, meanwhile, now has 31 wins and 13 losses in his record.
It's worth remembering that Douglas secured his spot in the organization after a standout performance in Dana White's Contender Series in September 2025, and now he's taking his first big step on the main stage of the MMA world.
